Britney Spears was released from the psych ward at UCLAMedicalCenter yesterday. Britney's parents did not sign off on her release, and they're not happy about it either. Britney was basically snuck off the premises just before noon, aided by a private security detail. Britney went immediately back to her Beverly Hills home, but she didn't stay there for long. She ended up driving around Los Angeles in a black Mercedes, accompanied by an unidentified member of the paparazzi and, as usual, Swamped by photographers. Now, it has long been one of the great mysteries of our time: Does Brit have breast implants or not? The new issue of "Rolling Stone" magazine has the answer: She did have breast implants, but she doesn't anymore. They say Britney got implants when she was 16 years old. That means her parents would have been required to sign off on the surgery. Nice. But Britney, "regretted the implants, particularly because her chest was still growing. And when her natural breasts became larger, she had the implants removed." The "Rolling Stone" article also answers another Burning Britney Question: Why did Britney and Justin Timberlake break up? Some of you were right. She was cheating on him with choreographer Wade Robson. Justin found out about it in February of 2002, when he discovered a note from Robson in Britney's room. That night, they were performing together on "Saturday Night Live". They sat backstage miserable; he refused to accept her apologies. The breakup was a terrible shock, particularly as it was followed by Britney's parents divorce two months later.
Last year, The Game was charged with three crimes after allegedly pulling out a gun on another player during a pick-up basketball game. He was accused of making a criminal threat, possession of a firearm in a school zone and exhibiting a firearm in the presence of an officer. He faced five years in prison, but he pled not guilty to all charges. But now, he'll tell the court he's guilty. Game says he is innocent, but he'd rather just take a deal and do four months in the clink, than spend a ton of money on a trial. He says, "The crazy part about this is that I've had guns before in my life. But this time I didn't have a gun. "And because one person said I had a gun and coaxed his homies into saying that I had a gun, I'm in a predicament where I'm asking, 'Do I want to spend another million dollars to fight this trial so who knows what jury's gonna come in and say I'm guilty? Or do I want to save my money, go sit down for four months and accept this felony they're trying to give me for no reason?'"
